Alt Text Map of Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area in Washington. The park is shown in dark blue, and the surrounding terrain is represented in beige. Roads are shown with black or red lines, some of which are highlighted in yellow to represent scenic drives. Extended Description The park creates a rippling J shape along the Franklin D Roosevelt Lake with a few spurs running along adjoining rivers. The southern end of the recreation area begins at the Grand Coulee Dam, and distances moving north and away from the dam are marked in increments of five miles. Following that numbering, this description will work south to north along the recreation area and its spurs and then shift to the surrounding areas. Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area Just north of the Grand Coulee Dam are the National Recreation Area Headquarters, Grand Coulee Dam Visitor Arrival Center (Bureau of Reclamation), and Coulee Confederated Tribal Museum, all in the town of Coulee Dam. The lower stem of the J-shaped park reaches east to mile 40, where it turns north. Between the Grand Coulee Dam and mile 5 are Crescent Bay, which has a boat launch; Crescent Bay Lake, which allows non-motorized or electric craft only; Spring Canyon with the Bunchgrass Prairie Nature Trail, which has a campground and boat launch; and a floating restroom. A second floating restroom is just past mile 10, and the free Keller Ferry crosses the lake just past mile 15. The Keller Ferry site has a campground, marina, boat fuel, and a boat launch. Between the ferry and mile 25 are Goldsmith with boat-in campsites; Hanson Harbor with a boat launch; a floating restroom; Penix Canyon with boat-in campsites; and Jones Bay with a campground and boat launch. Sterling Point, which has boat-in campsites, is past mile 30, and Lincoln, with a boat launch, is past mile 35. Here, the recreation area follows a short spur to reach Hawk Creek, which has a campground and boat launch. Back on the lake is Seven Bays with a boat launch, marina, and boat fuel; Two Rivers with a campground, marina, and boat fuel; and Fort Spokane Visitor Center, which has the Bluff Trail, Fort Spokane Trail, campground, boat launch, and ranger station. The recreation area continues east at this point to make an arched leg along the Spokane River. The numbering system continues here so between miles 45 and 55 are Crystal Cove with boat-in campsites; a floating restroom; McCoys with boat fuel; Ponderosa and Detillion, both with boat-in campsites; and Porcupine Bay, which has a campground and boat launch. The blue-shaded recreation area continues along the river to mile 70, where it ends at Little Falls Dam. Back at mile 40, the main leg of the park reaches north after a break between about mile 42 and mile 50. Sites and amenities are more sparsely spaced in this section. These include Enterprise, which has boat-in campsites, between miles 55 and 60; Hunters with campgrounds and boat fuel just before mile 65; the free Inchelium-Gifford Ferry after mile 75; and, between this and mile 80, are Gifford with a campground and boat launch and Cloverleaf (tent only) with a campground and swimming. Continuing north are Daisy, which has a boat launch near mile 85; French Rocks with a boat launch and Bradbury Beach with a boat launch and picnic area near mile 95; Haag Cove with a campground before mile 100; and Kettle Falls, which has a campground, marina, boat fuel, and boat launch past mile 100. At mile 105 are Kettle Falls Historical Center (variable hours), St Paul’s Mission and the Mission Point Trail, a floating restroom, and the site of Fort Colville. North of this, a spur along the Kettle River leads to Kamloops Island, which has a campground; Kettle River with a campground; and Napoleon Bridge with a boat launch. Back on the lake and in the final stretch between miles 105 and 125 along the Columbia River are Marcus Island, which has a campground and boat launch; Summer Island with boat-in campsites; Evans with a campground and boat launch; Snag Cove with a campground and boat launch; North Gorge, also with a campground and boat launch; China Bend with a boat launch; and China Bar. Surrounding Areas From north to south, sites around the park include Colville National Forest and then the Colville Indian Reservation to the west and Huckleberry Range and the Spokane Indian Reservation to the east. Yellow-highlighted roads representing scenic drives create a boxy figure eight that encompasses most of the park. State Route 21 makes up the Scenic Drive to the west, and State Route 25 mirrors it to the east. State Route 25 runs parallel to the north-south leg of the park on the east side, so the recreation area is contained within the network of scenic roads. The Sherman Pass National Scenic Byway, also labeled State Route 20, makes up the top of the figure eight. Bridge Creek Road is the Scenic Drive that divides the eight in half, and the bottom-most section overlaps US Route 2 and Miles-Creston Road. Scenic byways cross the lake at the Keller and Inchelium-Gifford ferries. Towns shaded green include Grand Coulee, which has a hospital, and Electric City just southwest of the Grand Coulee Dam. Hartline and Almira are to the south. Banks Lake stretches southwest from the town of Grand Coulee to Coulee City and the Dry Falls Dam. Wilbur and Creston are on US Route 2, and Davenport, which has a hospital, is southeast of that. Colville, also with a hospital, and Chewelah lie east of the park, and Northport, which has a boat launch, is northeast of the northern end of the park. Legend A legend in the lower center of the map reads as follows: Dark blue for Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area, Dark blue with a black number for River mileage from dam, and Gray line for Unpaved road. Two columns of symbols represent Ranger station, Hospital, Campground, Boat-in campsites, Boat launch, Marina, Boat fuel, and Picnic area. A scale measures distances of 5 and 10 kilometers and 5 and 10 miles.
